Our Values

The Linksbridge values represent who we are, how we operate, and how we conduct ourselves and our business. They serve as a guide and reminder for the work we do and how we do it.

1

Be passionate and rigorous.

Genuine interest in our clients and their missions allows us to produce high-quality work. We don’t say Yes to all projects, but instead, we focus on the ones that are worth caring about and require creative problem solving to find a way forward.

2

Take risks and pursue new ideas.

Creative thinking is horrendously undervalued. We create an environment in which our team can take risks and pursue new solutions and ideas.

3

Learn and live up-close and personal.

We roll up our sleeves and get our hands good and dirty. We are curious, with a desire for deeper understanding through exploration and experience. We strive to continually gain knowledge about the world and the experiences of others.

4

Be humble and dependable.

Character is evident through our actions. We have integrity and perform well under pressure. No teammate is left behind: We are loyal to the causes we work with, as well as to our colleagues, our clients, and ourselves.

5

Bring your whole self to work every day.

We strive to create an environment in which all are welcomed, respected, supported, and valued. We work to build an anti-racist organization. We honor the ways people differ and believe in opportunity and advancement for all, seeking to identify and eliminate barriers that prevent the full participation of some. We support our staff in the work they do in all facets of their lives. Rather than building a transactional workplace, we work on issues that matter and seek projects that don’t require deploying team members away from home for weeks at a time, allowing us to develop meaningful relationships with our partners, clients, and co-workers.

6

Create a better world through service.

We highly value working to create a better world and feel it’s our personal responsibility. Despite considerable differences in world views, we are all connected by our humanity and values.

7

Create joy.

Joy is the manifestation that comes when you are on the right path, acting with love, fearlessness, respect, and perseverance.
